Notes on Meaning

• Primary Meaning: The core meaning refers to traits or conditions present at birth. It does not describe acquired skills or knowledge.
• Figurative Use: Sometimes used loosely to describe a quality so deeply ingrained it seems present from birth (e.g., - an innate sense of humor), though it may be developed early in life.
• Medical vs. General: In general contexts, it translates to "innate." In specific medical contexts, "congenital" is the precise equivalent for diseases or defects.
